C’est la dernière maison au bout du chemin. La terrasse sur la photo est en haut à gauche sur le chemin de pierre , non annexée à la maison. La vue est incroyable.

The location is fantastic, right on the oceanfront and a perfect base for exploring the island. The property is spotless, well-maintained, and has a wonderful atmosphere. There’s a shared kitchen with large, dedicated storage cabinets for each room, and it's fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. The service was impeccable—Paula and Diana were always accessible, welcoming, and spoke excellent English. They went above and beyond to provide everything we needed with genuine generosity. Highly recommended!
